Biden Admin invites Communist country on terrorism list to tour U.S. security facilities

[Lisa558]

Why is the Biden Administration so buddy-buddy with a communist country that harbors terrorists and is on the list of state sponsors of terrorism? Now his DHS has invited Cuba to tour U.S. Maritime secure facilities.

DHS Invites Communist State Sponsor of Terrorism to Tour U.S. Maritime Security Facilities - Judicial Watch

As if the Mexican border crisis were not sufficiently compromising national security, the Biden administration invited officials from a communist country that appears on the government’s list of state terrorism sponsors to tour sensitive U.S. maritime security facilities. The bizarre secret...

A planned visit this week by Cuban Border Guard officials to U.S. Coast Guard headquarters in Washington has been canceled after complaints from Republican members of Congress. However, the Cuban delegation, which arrived Wednesday, will still be allowed to tour port facilities in North Carolina due to concerns that suspending the entire visit could trigger retaliation from Cuban authorities, congressional sources told the Miami Herald. Initially, officials from Cuba’s Interior, Transportation and Foreign Relations ministries were expected to meet with Coast Guard officials at the agency’s headquarters and tour U.S. port facilities in Wilmington, North Carolina, as part of the United States’ International Port Security Program, the State Department said.


But following calls from members of Congress to cancel the entire event, Department of Homeland Security officials replied that the U.S. Coast Guard feared that doing so could make the island authorities less willing to accept repatriated migrants interdicted at sea, according to congressional staffers who asked to remain anonymous to discuss information they were not authorized to comment on publicly.

Migration from Cuba across the Florida Straits increased dramatically last year, as did the number of Cubans coming through the U.S.-Mexico border, as increased government repression and an economic crisis pushed young people to flee the island.

The agenda for the two-day visit includes meetings with the Coast Guard, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, a tour of the port complex in Wilmington and a ship ride.

Whew. I’m glad the Republicans in Congress stepped in to block the most sensitive areas. Thank you for the update.

Only the Washington Coast Guard Headquarters is the sensitive area? That is all that was canceled.

Yes, and that’s important. At least the Republicans are trying to limit the Democrats’ friendliness with a Communist country that is on the state sponsor of terrorism list. Better something than nothing.

 

[SeaMajor7]

Democrats and communists; both shit-birds of a feather.

 

[Lisa558]

Just watch the Dems jump in here to say that the Republicans didn’t do enough to control what the Dems are doing re Cuba. No criticism for the Dems themselves of course.

The much bigger concern is the illegals coming in through the Southern Border. Shouldn’t we focus on blocking THEM?

You posted about Cuba and being worried about security.

I posted what the Biden administration was trying to do to lessen the illegal Cubans coming from the sea and the Southern border.

 

[Lisa558]

Do you actually know what you are talking about?

Sure. The Biden Administration invited the Communist government to tour our facilities, and the Republicans were successful in blocking at least one sensitive area.

So why is Biden focused on blocking Cubans, yet setting up welcome mats for the illegals from Central America?

You understood nothing.
Cry rivers over illegal immigration and then......reject possible solutions.

You need to take a good look at what the Statue of Liberty says.

There is an asylum law. And a legal process all have to go through. And as I posted before, thousands are deported on a daily basis if they do not meet those requirements.

You do not know that the Biden Administration is focused only on Cuban illegals.

WHAT IS THE QUOTE ON THE STATUE OF LIBERTY?​

The New Colossus


Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she
With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

Asylum does not even begin to cover what is going on at the southern border.

The Statue of Liberty is not part of the Immigration department. And the Constitution says nothing about socialism to pay these people off. It does say about taxes. foreign entanglements. One of our death knells.

Since you know nothing about either taxes, nor foreign affairs, I will leave it all to the Biden Administration to deal with those.

What solutions? The Biden Admin has championed illegal immigration. They are even flying people in.
